Title: Beautiful Fiat 600
Post by: kev131 on September 25, 2008, 08:33:00 PM
I stumbled across this one on our last day. While old 500s are everywhere 600s are much much rarer and to mind more desirable as a result.

Although this is a restored example (1964), it was prepared to an incredibly high standard, I would say better than when it left the factory brand spanking new!! Again the owner was proud to show her off and opened her up for me. Note the replica in the exact same shade as the bodywork!? ;)

That 600 looks to be a well kept motor.Look how clean that engine is ::).Didn't expect to see a Renault 4 in the background :o.
A person near me has a 1984 Renault 4/red for sale/RHD.600euro is asking price and it's in beautiful condition.Selling it caus he is into classic VWs and needs space to store the VW fleet.Eugene

Lovely looking car. My dad had one when we were kids. Can you imagine a family of 5 (3 sons) going off on holiday in one of these? My dad's got nicked by car thieves in Rome the day after he took delivery of it brand new. Can you believe the Italian police found it the day after in a lock up?  The thieves had managed to removed the engine out of it and it way laying next to the car. Even more incredible: the Italian police mechanics refitted the engine for him in their workshops and got him on his way again!!!

But has anyone spotted what's wrong with this fine car in the pictures?
